ADHD Clinic

YES! we provide ADHD assessment and treatment services for enrolled and casual patients. No referral necessary.

Warm friendly assessments with our expert assessors and GPs

From 1 February 2026, changes to ADHD prescribing rules mean some vocationally trained GPs and nurse practitioners can diagnose and start treatment for adults (18+) — including prescribing publicly funded stimulant medicines where clinically appropriate.

At Village Health, a small group of our GPs will be stepping into this important mahi to support patients who have often faced long waits and fragmented care. Please note: private fees apply because this work is not government funded.

We’re also planning to launch a dedicated private ADHD clinic in March — watch this space.

If you already have an ADHD assessment from a psychologist we can assist you with diagnosis and medication if your own GP is unable to do this.

For background on what’s changing (and the wider system challenges), we recommend this article:

Who is this service for?

Adults (18 years and older)

You can access our GP-led ADHD diagnosis and treatment pathway from 1 February 2026.

Under 18s (children and young people)

You can still access support through us, but GPs cannot diagnose ADHD or initiate stimulant prescribing for this age group under the new settings. In many cases you’ll need referral to a Child & Adolescent psychiatrist (public or private). Nationally, some nurse practitioners working in paediatric or child/adolescent mental health services can diagnose and start treatment for under-18s

Children <18 years

NOTE: more information coming soon on the process and pricing, please come back to this page in a few weeks time.
